Gateway Distriparks Limited (GDL), one of India’s leading multimodal logistics providers, announced its financial results for the quarter ended 30 September 2025.

For Q2, the company reported total revenue of INR 154.8 crore (H1: INR 316.9 crore), EBITDA of INR 20.56 crore (H1: INR 45.65 crore), PBT of INR –4.23 crore (H1: INR –0.28 crore), and PAT of INR –2.91 crore (H1: INR –0.37 crore). The company stated that these numbers reflect the consolidation of accounts following Snowman Logistics transitioning from an associate company to a subsidiary in December 2024.

Commenting on the performance, Prem Kishan Dass Gupta, Chairman & Managing Director, said, “Despite a dip in exports due to ongoing geopolitical challenges, we continue to witness healthy volume growth supported by a strong inflow of imports. The festive season drove increased consumption, and we expect this momentum to continue in the coming quarters. As trade agreements with the UK, EU, US, and other countries come into force, we foresee additional upside. Our initial operations of domestic services from the MMLP New Ankleshwar to North India—launched in October—have performed well, and we are optimistic about expanding this segment. We continue to evaluate opportunities to further grow our rail network, both through asset-light and owned models.”

Snowman Logistics continues to scale its growing 5PL vertical, with new capacity additions in Kolkata, Krishnapatnam, and Kundli now fully operational and witnessing steady utilisation. The company has also signed a build-to-suit (BTS) agreement for a new facility in Pune, which is expected to become operational next year.
